Installing WSUS Console on W8

Frage

Am I able to install WSUS as a console on Windows 8 x64 if WSUS is running on Windows Server 2003?

I've installed the deployment toolkit for Server 2012 (which has native support for WSUS) and I cannot connect to my server (I receive a snap-in error) - If I try to install the WSUS 3.0 SP2 package on W8 (just to use as a console, the installer launches
the program compatibility assistant, complaints that it has issues, and won't run (possibly b/c Windows Server 2012 has native support for it).

I've installed RSAT. The snap-in error appears to be more of what the underlying issue is. Error is as follows:

====
Error Msg: "MMC could not create the snap-in. The snap in might not have been installed correctly.CLSID: FX{8b6499ed-0241-e032-6508-da4b1c879d7e}
====

If I search the registry for the CLSID I come up with an exact match. Just not entirely sure what the issue is. I've read about issues
with MMC snap-ins wanting to play with different versions of .net - but don't have enough information as to what to modify to get the snap in to function correctly.
